1 1/4 c. warm water
1 pkg. dry yeast
2 tbsp. brown sugar
3 c. whole wheat flour
2 tbsp. cocoa
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. molasses
2 tbsp. oil

Add the sugar and the yeast to water and let stand five minutes.

Mix the dry ingredients and add the two remaining ingredients.

In a large bowl, mix all ingredients with a spoon. When you can no longer stir the mixture, turn it onto a floured board or table and knead for 10 minutes. (White flour may be used/kneaded into the bread to make it less sticky.)

Roll dough into a large bowl, lightly coat it with cooking oil, and return it to mixing bowl. Cover the bowl and let rise for 1 hour (warm place).

Flour hands and shape the dough by patting out pieces for the head, body, legs, tail and large spikes. Attach the smaller pieces to the body pieces by moistening (with a fingertip dipped in water) the edges to be joined.

After shaping dinosaur, add raisins for toes and almonds for the plates. Brush with a beaten egg. Bake 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes. Use ungreased cookie sheet.
